Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 004: Kate Berger on What Mindfulness Can Do for Kids and How to Get Started · 8 Apr 2016 podcast

So in that sense, you know, parents who are practicing mindfulness, working on their own, cultivating their own practice, it can be so, so powerful and wonderful.

Yeah, absolutely.

Let's see.

So one of my favorite books that I've been using lately is called Sitting Still Like a Frog.

And it's by Alina Snell, a Dutch woman.

She's actually written it in Dutch originally, it's been translated, but it's fantastic.

It's got a CD, there's exercises on it.

And I really just love it.

like the way it's kind of presented and packaged.

In terms of research and information, you know, the Mindfulness in Schools project website has a ton of stuff up there about their efforts and what they've been doing or, again, Mindful Schools.

For people in the U.S., there's the Mind Up Foundation that Goldie Hawn is a big spokeswoman for.

So, you know, there's lots of information available.

Those are just sort of a few that I usually turn to or would recommend people turn to.

And in terms of practice, yeah, one of the first exercises that we start with children typically is mindful listening.

So maybe setting a timer on the phone for 30 seconds or if you've got one of those Tibetan singing bowls, that's one that we use in practice.

But just taking – you don't even need a timer if that's too much to think about.

Just taking a few moments.

to just sit and listen.

So anything that you hear, you know, observing anything you hear in the room that you're in or outside of the room, maybe even any sounds coming from within the body and just noticing that.

And then maybe noticing also the sort of immediate urge to want to label those sounds or any emotions that are attached, you know, that annoying truck that keeps driving by or gosh, you know, I'm really hungry, my stomach's grumbling, things like that.
